Did you know many people in Zimbabwe fear talking about Human Righs as the feel its polical? polical disinterest zimbabwean youth We talk a lot about girls’ rights (and rightly so). But while we focus there, too many boys are slipping through the cracks quietly dropping out, working in hazardous jobs, self-medicating, and staying silent because “men do not cry.” This is not a culture war. It is a child rights issue. When our boys fall, our communities pay. The human rights baseline Zimbabwe’s Constitution is crystal clear. Section 56 guarantees equality and non-discrimination for everyone. Section 81 sets out children’s rights protection from economic and sexual exploitation, access to education, and the primacy of the child’s best interests in every decision. The Education Amendment Act (2020) also outlaws corporal punishment and bars exclusion for non-payment of fees or pregnancy. These are enforceable rights, not suggestions.
